Too smart...

The breeder warned us. She told us that Essie (now named Jujube) was the smartest dog on their property. Smart doesn't mean good. Wow, she really is smart.
  1. We bought a new bag of liver treats and Yun was trying to lure her into the bathroom so that we could give her a bath. He had one piece in his hand and was calling out to get her attention. Juju completely ignored him and went straight for the BAG, which Yun had set down randomly in the opposite direction. She showed him!
  2. I put her outside in our backyard to poop and pee. Ten minutes later, I open the basement door, so that I can access the backdoor to the backyard, and find her standing in front of me. In the basement. Not outside. The backdoor open.
  3. She has terrible separation anxiety. I thought maybe crating her would make her feel a bit safer. I put her in the crate and ran a 10 minute errand. When I returned, she's out of her crate. She showed me!
Boy, Loki sure is dumb.

Yikes! She is smart! I love reading about Jujube.... See, no two Shibas are the same - each one a little bit different! They certainly keep you on your toes. :)

Chibi And Sumo said...

i dont know if it's a theme or not, but chibi (female) in our estimation is about 10x smarter than sumo (male). he's more loving, cuddly, and obedient, but definitely not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
